Guru Poornima has got a lot of significance in the history
of mysticism, religion and holiness. Hindus attach paramount importance to
spiritual gurus. Gurus are often equated with God and always regarded as a link
between the individual and the Immortal.

The festival of Guru Purnima, a day to celebrate and honour
the guru, was held at Sarvanaman Vidya Mandir on Saturday 20th July
2013. The celebration commenced with a devotional prayer and Shloka followed by
Thakorji and Swamiji’s Poojan by P. Khandumama , Principal Mr Govind Borade sir
and other dignitaries. Students expressed their gratitude and respect for their
teachers and mentor Didis by performing Guru Poojan.

The skits on Guru-Shishya relationship were preformed to a
great extent. Incident on the life of Shivaji Maharaj was gracefully acted by
the students of various grades. The dance acts on a bhajan from junior and
senior groups were the major pursuits of the events.

Students took hold of a very important message of being
extremely faithful towards Guru’s commands from all the performances. The
programme was marked with a blend of different presentations including bhajans,
dances, dramas, video presentations, personal experiences and enlightening speeches.The
event was concluded by a teacher’s speech followed by Mantra Pushpanjali.

‘Teacher to serve the
society with Selflessness’ was the area of discussion for the resource person Dr.
K. Subrahmanyam, the Pro-Vice Chancellor at S-VYASA (Yoga University) Bengaluru.
The workshop was held at Sarvanaman Vidya Mandir, Bharuch on Wednesday, 17th July,
2013 between 11:30 am. to 12:30 pm.

In a very short span of his
speech, Sir touched almost all the core qualities that a teacher requires. He
began with human psychology and quoted, ‘Fools miss opportunity, ordinary men
make it, wise see it while yogis – real teachers transform difficulties or disadvantages
into opportunities.

With the help of some mythological
epics, Sir elucidated that the selfless service is a very great boon of a
teacher. One must try to make everything for the advantage of others and be
useful to the welfare of society. In this divine service, not to be self-seeking,
self-centered and bodily bound but dedicate everything. Unselfishness is more
paying than selfishness.

Sir, very proudly said that cultured
people are seen only in teachers community in India and they are not merely
preceptors but exemplifiers for the humanity. Thus, the workshop was concluded
very rewardingly with the punch line that the teacher must update their
knowledge and bring into the use to others and subsequently it turns into the GYAN-YAGNA.

Drawing,
Colouring and Rangoli are the main pieces of art, and it takes a lot of time
and practice to become an expert in any art. They are the kind of art each of us can easily relate to as they
signify two important things, - Colours, which we Indians love and --Festivities,
which we Indians enjoy with our families.

Be it any occasion, a family function, a festival or a
competition at Sarvanamn Vidya Mandir, Drawing, Colouring and Rangoli were no different as they could
lift the mood of every student and fetch some quick compliments. The students
of Grade I to V participated in the ‘DRAW AND COLOUR COMPETITION’ and VI to X
participated in the ‘RANGOLI COMPETITION’ held on July 12, 2013 in Assembly
Hall. It was surely a great way to add some colour and glamour to the routine
and regular life of students. The creative artists were so different in their unique
ways, styles and techniques of creating their presentations. The vibrant
and diverse colour combinations used were making a great reason for its exceptionality.
The competition was held in different age groups and was adjudged by the experts.
